Note on back from Harold's aunt, Bessie(Newmiller) Bartholomew:
Thought you would enjoy this picture as Harold is in the center or rather the second one I marked it. When he was in service and had all these fellow[s] under him -
Paul has one so I thought of you- Am sending pictures that I had already in the Envelope so I'll just put it in with the other others as its cheaper in a box then in an Envelope-


Bessie incorrectly identified Harold in the picture; he is not the one identified with an "X" but one person to the left of that sailor (first row, third from left). It is also probable that she was incorrect about Harold having command of these individuals, i.e. "... had all these fellow[s] under him." This appears to be all older, commanding officers of which Harold was one, and not the men under his command.
